Lovely sunsets

Rated 5 out of 5

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Moorings North at Chincoteague. The property is gorgeous, and it offered everything we needed. We all slept comfortably, and there are plenty of bathrooms for everyone to clean up after the beach in time for dinner. On the days of our stay when the weather did not encourage visiting the beach at Assateague, we enjoyed gathering in the main area of the house. From there and the upper deck we saw some of the most beautiful sunsets I’ve ever seen. The owners of the property, Claudia and Claus, were easy to communicate with, and we thank them for a lovely setting for our vacation.

Moorings North is a fantastic place to spend time with the family and enjoy Chincoteague. It is awesome and lends itself to a peaceful vacation. Claudia is a great host and is interested in the joy given by the house for her guests. I recommend it to all.

A great place to stay. Walking distance from a couple of great coffee shops, with all the restaurants just a few minutes away by car. The house was fantastic with the inside feeling fresh, and new. Highly recommend this place.

Sisters Weekend

Our sister from Washington State came to visit her 6 sisters from New Jersey and we all drove down to Chincoteague for a sisters get together. It was a very nice weekend together.

Wonderful House

Rated 5 out of 5

This was the perfect base for our multi generation group. The views were amazing and the location convenient to town but also close to biking trails.we can’t wait to return

Stephanie from Maryland, July 2024

Best House!

Rated 5 out of 5

This was our first time as a family staying on the island. We have rented many houses over the years all over and this home is by far the most well equipped and thoughtfully laid out and presented vacation spot we have rented. Beautiful views, right on the water, very clean, super responsive owners. It had been 4 years since we did a beach vacation and this was well worth it! We did a tour with Capt Mike to see the poinies and he said we had the best house in the island. He was right. We hope to be able to stay here again.

Richard from Virginia, August 2024

Definitely will stay again

This property was amazing, everything was clean up to date and just a wonderful experience. It’s located centrally around everything. The views were amazing and the place was just absolutely stunning. The only complaint that I have is that we had to leave at the end of our trip LOL

Location was amazing

Rated 5 out of 5

We had a mixed group of family and friends and the location was amazing. The decor is spot on…. Just so tasteful and thoughtful! The property itself feels homey and so well tended. The kitchen was fabulously stocked with kitchen tools, cooking gear and plenty of plates and glasses. Wonderful stay!

Rosanne from Virginia, December 2023

The perfect house for our family

Rated 5 out of 5

Moorings North was the perfect house for our family. We all loved the water views, sunsets boat and bird watching! The little extras available for all to use; the Baby gates, bikes, bike repair items, outdoor games, fire pit and extra propane tank made our stay relaxing and stress free! A new grill brush even arrived just in time for our stay! Our family enjoyed walking for coffee, ice cream, shopping and dinner.

Claudia was very responsive to any questions we had. I highly recommend Moorings North for your stay in Chincoteague!

Susan from Pennsylvania, October 2023

Lots of things to do

Rated 5 out of 5

This one of the most beautiful and well-kept rental homes on the island, with lots of things to do (bikes, puzzles and games if it rains) plus lots of space for a large group of people both to be together or to find some privacy. Perfect sunset viewing.

Rated 5 out of 5

Everything about our stay was perfect, the deck, the well equipped kitchen, the whole living space, the bedrooms… we enjoyed all the things we did, the friendship we have, and a respite from every day worries.

We were celebrating a 75th birthday with family ranging from 3-75 and this house was perfect. The elevator was a huge plus as 2 people have mobility challenges. Well outfitted, great location, easy access. The host was very responsive to our general questions.

Yvonne from Virginia, May 2023

Perfect family getaway!

Rated 5 out of 5

We rented this home for Memorial Day weekend shocked it was available! The house was very clean and spacious we had 8 adults abd 2 children. The owners were so sweet and left us a gift basket and gift card for ice cream for the kids! We also were very fortunate to check in early too! There is plenty of room for multiple cars, we each felt like the rooms were our own aprtment there was so much space. Very close to everything you need in a short walk or even shorter drive. The sunsets were absolutely breath taking off of the porch and the view from the living room was perfect for the rainy days we stayed in to play board games (provided by the owners) but felt like we were still sitting on the deck! The keyless entry was a plus with a big group. The house had everything we needed and then some, we will definitely be back! 10/10 Recommend!

Island Paradise-Eagles, Wild Ponies and Gorgeous Water Views

Rated 5 out of 5

Experiencing the Pony Swim Week has been a dream of my mom’s since she was little. We made that happen this past week. We knew we needed a special home to help us collect these memories for three generations of pony lovers. Moorings North was the perfect island paradise! The views from the home were outstanding-one day a bald eagle sat across from us for hours. We biked to Island Creamery and Mr. Whippy’s and also enjoyed Bill’s for a steak and seafood meal. Our waitress, Liz, we got to see at the carnival later that week. The small town warmth is hard to match! Get the week pass onto Assateague, bike the Wilderness Loop to see all the waterfowl, and climb the 178 stairs to the top of the lighthouse. We will return and we will stay at Moorings North. Excellent communication from Claudia and the most precious welcome basket. Fished with success from the house, guys did some crabbing and we had a crab boil one night. One of our favorite adventures and we fell madly in love with Chincoteague. Book with Claudia-you’ll be so happy!

Lauren from Florida, July 2023

Amazing

We all had a wonderful, relaxing time. We fished out back. The house is gorgeous and very accommodating. I can’t say enough about how soft the sheets were. Anything you would need was there. Thank you so much for letting us stay in your house. It was thoroughly enjoyed by all!!

The pictures cannot do this property justice and the owners were a dream to engage with. We stayed for our family reunion including my 96 year old grandmother and uncle who has trouble walking and they were able to spend time with us overlooking the water thanks to the elevator on site. Highly recommend!!

This property is even more impressive in person. Claudia and Claus Grill are the most thoughtful and gracious hosts. Our family had great time!

We were looking for a waterfront getaway to spend some quality family time together. Boy, did we get it. My singular criteria was water view. It was spectacular. The views were awesome and the accommodation was first class. Plenty of room to have both privacy and family time. We’ll be back!

Duck Hunting

Rated 5 out of 5

We booked the house for duck hunting trip. The house was exactly as advertised. The location was convenient and the views were incredible. There was plenty of room in the house and the furniture and beds were all very comfortable. It was too cold during our stay to enjoy the porches, but we certainly appreciated the fireplace! It was a great place to stay and we would definitely come back. The owners were also very helpful and easy to work with. Highy recommend!

Michael from New Jersey, November 2021

Wonderful trip

Rated 5 out of 5

I’ve booked many homes with VRBO and this was one of the best. The house is beautiful. Lovely furniture inside and out. The kitchen was very well stocked and our two “gourmet” adult children had no complaints. We had beautiful weather and took full advantage of all the amenities. Our two grandchildren each caught a fish. Their highlight of the week. The kids also were over the moon staying in their hideaway bedroom. This home is also close to the National Park so if you are a walker, biker, birdwatcher then you can’t beat the location. Book it.

Sharon from Maryland, October 2021

Beautiful house on the water

Rated 5 out of 5

This house is amazing. The views were spectacular and the sunsets were beautiful. The weather during our stay was perfect in the mid 70s so we fully utilized the multiple outdoor spaces – the outdoor furniture is excellent quality. The house is very nicely furnished and we were impressed with how well stocked the kitchen was. We found quite literally every utensil we needed. The beds were comfortable and each room had plenty of space. We tried out the fireplace and it was wonderful. My sister unfortunately sprained her knee right before our arrival so we got a lot of unexpected use out of the elevator, which worked flawlessly. Communication with Claudia was a breeze. We would stay here again and would recommend this property friends/family.

Samantha from New York, September 2021

Awesome stay

Rated 5 out of 5

We enjoyed our stay very much and highly recommend this property. The house is huge and provided more then enough space for our 2 families to spread out. The property is close to Maddox Blvd, which allowed us to walk to the Island Creamery with the kids. It had all the amenities one can ask for and was very clean. Watching the sun set over the bay from the upper deck was a perfect ending to each day.

Franziska from Virginia, September 2021

Outstanding house with beautiful views!

Rated 5 out of 5

Our expectations were exceeded while we vacationed at Moorings North! Claus and Claudia gave great attention to comfort, quality, and beauty in this well equipped home. The home was very clean, the kitchen was well supplied with just about anything you could think of needing, there are many games and puzzles and the views are spectacular.

The wall of windows was one of our favorite areas. Often someone was reading there, watching the birds, enjoying the gorgeous sunsets, and twice we saw dolphins swimming in the channel. The location of the house allowed us to walk many places, lots of bike rides were enjoyed and it’s a short drive to Assateague to enjoy the beautiful beach and surf.

Equally impressive is the service we received from Claudia. Prior to our stay she answered my questions very promptly and with great details and in a very friendly manner. She was always very gracious and helpful.

Our whole family (adults and children) thoroughly enjoyed our week at Chincoteague and would love to stay here again!

Pat from New York, August 2021

Wonderful house & experience

Rated 5 out of 5

This home has tons of character, no details were missed and there’s plenty of room to spread out, relax and enjoy the company of others with a terrific view over the bay. I’ve been visiting Chincoteague for about 40 years and this property is THE BEST home we’ve stayed in. The owners, Claudia and Claus, have created a wonderful home to share with others and were easy to interact with upon check-in and check-out. Everything was in working order, clean and ready to enjoy. My family and I had a fantastic time here and will definitely be back.

Bill from Pennsylvania, August 2021

The best property in Chincoteague

Rated 5 out of 5

We’ve been going to C’teague for eight years and counting and this is the best home we’ve ever rented. It was spotless, comfortable, roomy, and had the most exquisite views of the water. Whether you are birdwatching, napping, cooking or watching the sunset — it’s perfect in every way. The owners are delightful and provide great assistance and have thoughtfully outfitted the home with many conveniences: the kitchen is fabulous (the only thing I’d add is a full-size food processor, but that’s only because we’re big cooks — NOT A COMPLAINT!), they have beach chairs, beach games, bikes, puzzles, board games, and more. We already decided to book again for next year only to find out that they are already almost booked. If you can snag a spot in this home, you won’t regret it.

Lisa from Virginia, July 2021

Great house, excellent location!

Rated 5 out of 5

We loved this house, especially it’s location! This was really well set up for a vacation home. It sits waterfront, right on a canal with easy access to the bay. And we loved Chincoteague. One of the best features for us was an elevator as our oldest is disabled. And the house manager was in great communication with us!

Everything You Can Want and More

Rated 5 out of 5

Moorings North was even better than the photos and property description indicated. Claudia and Claus are gracious hosts and very responsive to any questions or concerns. The house is beautifully decorated, equipped with everything you could possibly need, has stunning views from both levels and is situated within walking distance of the historic district, shops, a deli and, of course, The Island Creamery. A lovely gift basket awaited us as did little toiletry bags in each bathroom. Due to a storm and power outage, one of the thermostats ceased working, but a text to Claudia had a repairman arrive quickly and the problem resolved. We can’t wait to return to Moorings North,.

Marci from New Jersey, April 2021

Exceptional

Rated 5 out of 5

In searching for the best adjective to describe Moorings North I believe “exceptional” in every way is the best I can do to offer my highest recommendation of this property and the gracious hosts. Every detail of the house, the responsiveness of the host and the charming location exceeded our expectations.

Great Family & Friends Vacation

Rated 5 out of 5

Everyone enjoyed the beautiful, clean and spacious property with plenty of privacy for two families. The elevator was an added convenience for luggage and groceries. The views from the main room are stunning and mesmerizing. And the owner is super flexible and available as needed. It’s a lovely vacation house and location, and we would definitely visit again! We brought our bikes (although the owner provides several adult bikes and a child’s bike) and used them to go the wildlife sanctuary. Some of the side roads have dedicated bike lanes which made us feel more comfortable riding on the roads with a ten year old. We also brought our own kayaks and used them at a kayak launch point in Veterans’ Park. A small fee ($5) is required to launch the kayak there. It is a great place to see all types of birds, including loons and eagles. If going on a boat tour, especially a private one, you might want to see if they can pick you up right at the house. It’s such a special area, and we were glad to have a beautiful place to relax in and enjoy the surroundings.

We cannot thank Claudia and Claus enough for lending us their home for the weekend. Claudia was so easy to communicate with and nice as can be!

Moorings North was a beautiful escape for our family. The home was more wonderful in person than the photos could ever so justice. Everything we could’ve needed was there and more, even a pack-n-play but our children are big enough for beds now. The hosts were gracious and helpful. Our family will be back and recommends this property to others, especially to families with children looking for good quality time in the town and wildlife refuge.

We enjoyed our time here so much! I can’t say enough great things about this place. The home is beautiful, spacious, clean and in a great location. Great views of the channel and bay throughout. Our favorite part was hanging out on the deck/dock fishing, watching boats pass by and viewing wildlife. The home is well stocked with essentials. This property can accommodate a large family comfortably. The elevator was very helpful for my parents who have difficulty with stairs. The owners were a pleasure to work with. Claudia was very thoughtful and kind. We appreciated her attention to detail. We can’t wait to come back!

Property more than lived up to expectations. The home is beautifully maintained and is stocked with anything you could need. The accommodations for my mobility challenged 84 year old mother and 80 year old cousin were just what we needed. The hosts could not be more gracious and were very attentive. It was a wonderful week and we will definitely book this location again the next time we go to Chincoteague.

Likely the nicest rental venue on Chincoteague

Rated 5 out of 5

A truly lovely location with great views from every angle. So many niceties with absolutely no disappointment. Everything looks new, nothing shabby or worn. Beachy decor throughout, all rooms very well appointed. Great kitchen and large living space, outdoor balconies with gas grill; water-side gas fire pit, outdoor shower; exceptional dock access (we brought 25′ boat and two jet skis, super easy tie up). Four cruiser bikes in great condition were great for exploring. When it’s time to return, this will be our go-to! Most importantly, our hosts were exceptionally accommodating with Covid-19 schedule rearrangement. We are so very grateful. Thank you Claudia and family!!

Moorings North

Rated 5 out of 5

Moorings North is a fantastic house in a spectacular spot. The views–especially at sunset–are breathtaking. And the house is perfectly appointed. Claudia and Claus have thought of everything. We spent five days there with our five adult children plus two significant others, and the layout and space was perfect for us. Assateague Beach is just minutes away (by car or bike), and after a day at the beach, we would have cocktails while playing corn hole on the spacious dock/bulkhead, followed by dinner on the upper deck looking out over Chincoteague Bay and then late-night board games in the spacious living room. Five bedrooms (four of which have private baths) make it perfect for large (or multiple) families.

Claudia was an absolutely incredible host. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would without any hesitation. Not only was the home absolutely stunning (the pictures don’t do it justice), but Claudia was incredibly responsive and went out of her way to ensure that our stay was as enjoyable and smooth as possible. I will definitely be booking at Moorings North anytime I come back to the island. The house is very accessible and everything on the island is accessible by bicycle, which the house generously provides.

Beautiful home in every way, amazing rental

Rated 5 out of 5

From start to finish our family of five had a wonderful experience. The hostess, Claudia, was flexible and very responsive. No detail goes unturned in this beautiful home, with special touches and useful notes found throughout. The pictures don’t do this home justice! It’s impeccably decorated, comfortable beds and rooms with beautiful water views, very nice bathrooms, a great kitchen with everything you need, and extremely clean everywhere. You have access to incredible amenities that include a beautiful, large, third level outdoor dining porch and grill, fire pit, fishing pier, bikes and beach chairs and more! The sunset view is incredible. The home was incredibly spacious and we could have fit another family with us. You can walk to little shops, restaurants and the Beach is less than 15 minutes away. It was too windy for us to enjoy the beach, but we still enjoyed our stay! We rode bikes to Assateague Park and saw the ponies, fished, walked around town. Regardless of the weather, we still had a fun time and hope to go back. Thank you for a great quarantine escape!

Life on Chincoteague!

Rated 5 out of 5

Of course with me having family on the Island, it was wonderful just to visit with them. We were there for the Pony Penning week and the activities with it was everything wonderful! We were able to take advantage of the five bikes that were available a couple of times. The morning and evening views were awesome to enjoy. The balconies were enjoyed every morning and evening and sometimes in between times. The only thing that caught us off guard was that the beds were not prepared and after a long drive just wasn’t prepared to be be making eight beds before using them. But other than that everything was great. Thanks Claudia for sharing your beautiful place with us and making our stay comfortable and enjoyable!

Great for a family vacation!

Rated 5 out of 5

Have been vacationing with our family for over 15 years. While other condos were very nice, this home is outstanding! With three master suites, one of our first challenges was to decide what room everyone had. Great views of the water, perfect location for access to downtown and the wildlife refuge. Furnishing were all first class – enjoyed dinners in the dining area and on the patio weather permitting – very family friendly home. If we every return to this area again, this will be our first choice.

Rated 5 out of 5

This house is amazing! The location is perfect to walk to town or to amazing ice cream, or drive to the lighthouse and see the ponies or hike. The home is in perfect condition, with furnishings in wonderful shape and very comfortable beds. It was perfect for our family to host an 80th b’day party with an elevator and a wonderful outdoor deck to spread out our crowd for a meal. We were able to serve 10 around the dining room table and had lots of seating in the great room. We played guitars and sang around the outdoor fireplace. This wonderful home helps create beautiful memories. Thank you Claus and Claudia for opening your home to us!

We all loved the house from the moment we arrived! The views are stunning, the rooms comfortable and beautifully decorated, and the kitchen had everything we needed to prepare our Thanksgiving meal. Claudia and Claus had prepared a gift basket to greet us including a gift card for the children to get ice cream at the local Island Creamery and a coloring books about Chincoteague that they thoroughly enjoyed. The children loved sleeping in the “tower” room and cuddling around the fire, and we all enjoyed watching for wildlife from the living room windows; we saw blue herons, loons and otters. Chincoteague itself was equally a delight as we explored the Wildlife Refuge and went on the special Wildfowl Weekend drive to see the migratory birds and wild ponies; a beautiful pony even galloped up to our car! We couldn’t have had a better family vacation, and will always have fond memories of our stay at Moorings North.

I would and will be recommending this home to anyone interested in visiting Chincoteague Island. We travel a lot and I don’t think I have ever stayed in a home that met every single one of our needs. Traveling with a party of ten that is saying a lot! We celebrated our 50th anniversary. The food was provided by the Chincoteague Village Restaurant which was delicious.The owner was very helpful and a delight to communicate with before and during stay. The home truly surpassed our expectations.

Incredible home with excellent upkeep. Spacious, well-appointed home with great sunset views. Owners are great to work with and it’s obvious they love their island home.

Moorings North is a well-appointed 5 bedroom home!

Rated 5 out of 5

This is the best vacation rental on Chincoteague Island! We’ve been vacationing there for 25 years, and this is by far the largest, cleanest, and most accommodating home we’ve rented! The 5 bedrooms perfectly fit our needs for the 2 of us, 3 children and spouses, and 3 grandchildren! Each had their private space plus the shared living room, dining room, fully appointed kitchen, gazebo in the sky, fire pit area, and dock. The panoramic views across the water at each hour of the day were amazing, but the daily sunsets stole the show! Thanks so much for providing the special welcome basket that reached everyone in our group! Thanks also for the special 6th birthday gift for our granddaughter as we celebrated her special day in Moorings North! We were all in agreement to contact you during our stay to book again for next summer!

Fabulous get away weekend

Rated 5 out of 5

The minute we walked into this house we knew we picked the perfect spot for a 60th birthday get together. The house is beautiful and the view is spectacular. We enjoyed every minute of our stay and the owner of the home made sure we were comfortable and had everything that we needed. We rode bikes, that were provided, went to the beach, walked through town and just spent time on the patio and deck with views of the water. The deck off the kitchen was perfect for morning coffee as well as dinner. We will definitely be back. Everything about the owners and the house was perfect.

Wonderful Thanksgiving

Rated 5 out of 5

I will exhaust every positive adjective describing Moorings North and the hospitality shown by the Grills. Every detail was addressed – baby gates, outlet covers, a pack-and-play, games to a beautifully equipped bar area and extensive entertainment technology…something for everyone. All we needed to pull off a Thanksgiving dinner was there.

The home is exactly as pictured – clean and beautifully decorated.

The Grills are accommodating and thoughtful – the personalized welcome basket for the children was a big hit. One of our best memories will be the Great Egret roost directly across from the house. Watching these magnificent birds fly in at sunset was awesome.Our only problem was saying goodbye. Thank you Claudia and Claus for allowing us to create wonderful family memories.

The property has everything you could ever need for a beach vacation

Rated 5 out of 5

We really enjoyed the bay views from all levels of the house. The expanse of window allows for this great view even when inside the house. The bedroom balconies and windows allowed for bay view even from the bed. The firepit area was an awesome spot to watch the shore birds come in to roost for the night. Having beach chairs, sand toys, bikes, helmets, gas grill was all great so we didn’t have to have those items take up space in our vehicle since we were traveling with a baby and had all those necessary items. The house was first class with beautiful flooring, chandeliers, fireplace, Wi-Fi, beverage area with wine openers and stoppers. We particularly liked the dining room with the expense bay view. We would definitely consider returning to this property for a future vacation and will recommend it to our friends. Another nice feature is all the bedrooms are like suites with ample private space for dressing rooms, makeup area, bathing, etc. We also liked the beach theme with the wall art and the personal touch of Moorings North with the coffee mugs and the welcome basket. The outdoor shower is a nice feature when returning from the beach. And the elevator is definitely a lifesaver. The location of this property allows for great walking to downtown and the shopping district, restaurants and parks.

Family Vacation for Pony Penning

Rated 5 out of 5

What a wonderful spot for our every-other-year family vacation. Gorgeous, welcoming home! The en-suite rooms were perfect for our three daughters and their spouses and young kids. Our two older grandkids loved the third floor loft. Great place with mooring lines for our new boat and a quick ride to the pony swims which I last saw 53 years ago as a small child. A magical week!

Tammy from Delaware, July 2017

Perfect Week at Moorings North

Rated 5 out of 5

xcellent week. Short ride to the beach and short walk/bike ride to downtown restaurants. Short walk to the corner coffee shop. Very usable indoor and outdoor spaces. Our grandson learned to cast from the beautiful dock. The layout of the home provided ample space for our four families to gather and the bedroom/bathroom suites assured enough space for all to be comfortable. We greatly appreciated the elevator! We used the gas grill on several occasions and dined on the upper porch many times. Mother Nature provided exceptional weather and a nest full of baby birds to check on each day–a favorite activity of our 5-year-old grandson. Owners are very cooperative and hospitable!

A Gem on Chincoteague Island

Rated 5 out of 5

Our week at Moorings North could not have been better. Not only is the setting of the house perfect, the décor is beautiful also. We were able to walk downtown or to the local ice cream shops. Sunsets are beautiful. The amenities of the house are fantastic. The Gril family did not forget anything to make our planning/arrival/stay/departure seamless. We felt it was a very “welcoming “house the minute we walked through the door. Simple things like night lights (beach theme, of course) in the bathrooms, small signs around the house to direct you to the right light switches or to tell you lights are on timers, and detergents in the kitchen and laundry room all made us feel at home. The baby gates and Pack and Play also made packing lighter and made us feel it is a house for all generations. Cleanliness is obviously very important because the house was spotless when we arrived. Moorings North is a gem on the island.

Jill and Dennis from Pennsylvania, June 2017

Exceptional!

Our family loved this home. It was spacious, comfortable, well appointed and oh that view. I ( the family chef) was very pleased with the state-of-the-art kitchen…I didn’t even need to get out the knives I brought along. The house was spotless when we arrived. We would definitely stay here again…and again. It was well worth the cost.

Fabulous property

Rated 5 out of 5

We were surprised and disappointed to arrive and find that this is a duplex property, and not a stand alone. Everything else, however, was absolutely delightful. We are two families, with two children per family (ages 10, 10, 9 and 5). The rooms were lovely, and the common space allowed for relaxed time together, with unbeatable views of the water and water fowl. The kitchen was very well stocked. We would absolutely return to this same property upon a repeat visit to Chincoteague Island.

Perfect backdrop for an amazing family reunion

Rated 5 out of 5

My family was getting together for the first time in many years and wanted to do something special, Moorings North provided that and more then I could have dreamed of. The view was spectacular, and the house well appointed and beautiful. There was plenty of room for 8 adults and a toddler, and the kitchen had just about everything you could possibly want. The hosts were very thoughtful and responsive, several times leading up to the visit I emailed questions and they always responded promptly with all the information and more! They even had fantastic suggestions for seafood spots so we could have a crab meal at the house one night. So much about the house was special, they have a telescope that absolutly enthralled several members of the family and bikes for others!! Great experience from booking on through!!!

We booked this house over New Year’s Eve and it was exactly as hoped/advertised. The house layout maximizes its fantastic views. Inside, it is well appointed with respect to furniture, kitchen, electronics, you name it! Not to mention that we walked in the door to a gift basket tailored directly to the children on our trip (by name). You couldn’t ask for more friendly, thoughtful and accommodating hosts. We enjoyed the house so much that we have already started planning our return next year.

Perfect family Thanksgiving

Rated 5 out of 5

Moorings North was PERFECT for our Thanksgiving week family reunion. The bedroom suites with their own bathrooms allowed the four families to each have their own private areas while the expansive kitchen-dining-living area was large enough for visiting and meals. We’ve always been to Chincoteague in the summer but Moorings North was great in the fall, especially the fire pit overlooking the channel on the chilly nights. Looking forward to a return. Five stars.

I stayed during Veteran’s Day weekend with a group of friends for our annual trip. The house did not disappoint. The house was very welcoming, comfortable, spacious, clean, and had everything we needed. From the comfortable beds, spacious bathrooms, AMAZING views, outdoor patio, fire pit, bicycles, and iPad, we had everything we needed for a comfortable weekend. And the elevator was a huge help for bringing in all the bags. The location to the shops was perfect, and not too far to walk or ride the bikes. I would definitely stay at Moorings North again in the future.

Maria from Maryland, November 2016

Excellent!

Rated 5 out of 5

Wow, this house was absolutely amazing! We stayed here for a family trip recently, the adults and the kids loved the amazing view and being able to fish off the dock. It’s very close to everything (being on a small island). And they were so nice as to leave a little care package for the kids on the day of arrival, which was such a sweet unexpected surprise! And of course the house itself! Each bedroom has its own bathroom (besides the attic), which was so convenient for each set of adults, and the kids loved having the attic as a little hideaway. The place was absolutely fantastic. Claudia was just lovely to work with in preparing for the trip, and just so helpful and thoughtful throughout. Thank you for a great stay!

We are repeat visitors to this wonderful house and truly can’t say enough positive things about it. This is our 4th time staying and our second time with these particular owners. Nothing overlooked on their part and the process of booking etc is seamless. So many nice touches as in the past and this year the addition of an outdoor shower and fire pit as well as new landscaping and separate area for bikes and beach chairs. We are already looking forward to 2017. Thank you so much for making our family get together a special one.

Our best rental ever. Claudia is available to help with whatever is needed

Moorings North is the perfect vacation destination!

Rated 5 out of 5

y husband and twin sons (age 25) enjoyed a week (6/26/16 – 7/3/16) at Moorings North located in Chincoteague, Virginia. I have been visiting the island for over 35 years. We have stayed at a variety of places over the years and have always enjoyed our visit, but, this vacation was just exceptional……in large measure due to our choice of venue. Moorings North is, without question, the most beautiful home we have ever rented. Claudia and Claus Grill have gone above and beyond to ensure their guests are absolutely comfortable and have no reason to run to the store for anything, unless you like to cook, of course. And cook, we did. The kitchen is so well equipped. There wasn’t one utensil or device I missed from home. We loved dining inside on rainy nights and on more pleasant evenings, outside on the deck that adjoins the living areas. The home is decorated in perfect taste and just, immaculate. I could go on and on but suffice it to say, my family and I recommend Moorings North to anyone expecting everything only the best.

Rated 5 out of 5

Of all the rental properties we’ve stayed at over the last 30 years, this is by far the most exquisite. The layout of the home and the attention to detail inside and out was far and above what we had expected. Everything from the user friendly kitchen, to the bar area, to the outside dock and fire pit, as well as the comfortable beds and outside dining and seating area were absolutely beautiful. The family is already requesting we rent this place again next year. A big ‘Thank You’ to Claudia and Claus.

Probably one of the best places we have ever stayed. We are all seasoned vacationers and the place met all our needs. There was nothing we needed because everything was provided. The pictures are exactly how the place looks. It was easy to book, all correspondence was timely. Plan on returning with same group (family) next year. Thank you, Claudia. Did I mention Chincoteague has the best restaurants and ice cream. LOL!

Paradise Found

Moorings North is a haven to all! Nestled on Chincoteague Bay, its vast third-floor windows provide an ever-changing view of nature that soothes the soul , just what we needed after a stressful winter. The Grill’s beautiful home also soothes the body with exceptional furnishings, abundant suites and bedrooms, and great places to relax, including a third-floor gazebo and water-side patio, complete with hammock! If you are lucky enough to be able to rent here, you will be greeted and pampered by your thoughtful hosts and their magnificent home. I hope we can return — and soon!

I rented this home for a weekend with a group of girlfriends, and it was a fantastic experience. The home is beautiful and well kept, and the views from the balcony and living room/kitchen area are as awesome as they look in the photos! Even though I reviewed the listing before we left, when we first got there, I kept surprising myself by finding more and more bedrooms – sleeping space is very ample. We had everything we needed available to us, and a lot was in walking distance from the house, too. Claudia and Claus were extremely kind and helpful at every turn as well, and provided clear info and instructions for everything. I highly recommend Moorings North – a step above the common rental experience!

We had a wonderful stay at your beautiful home. We were a multi generation here for the first time to celebrate Easter weekend. The house is lovely and the special touches made us all feel very welcome. The view is perfect and we found many places to hide our Easter eggs. Due to the weather, it had to be done inside, so you may be finding eggs hidden in strange places. Maybe you will get lucky and find a “golden” one with $$$ in it!

We have our VT home listed on VRBO, if you are ever looking for a vacation north we would be happy to have you as guests.

We are a group of 9-10 ladies that has been taking an annual trip together for 6 years. We have stayed in several places. Moorings North has gone to the top of our list. The house is beautiful and the view is amazing. The close proximity to the lovely town of Chincoteague was a bonus. It was an easy walk into town and the ice cream shop! The best ice cream sold right in Chincoteague. Our group cooks together and the kitchen was well equipped. The owner was a pleasure to work with and helped make our annual trip a great success. Thank you Claudia and Claus for having such a wonderful rental property.

We spent Christmas in this amazing house! From the moment we walked through the door we loved it! The personal touches added by Claudia and her family were much appreciated! Especially the Christmas decorations! I didn’t know what we were going to do about a tree but when we arrived there was a tree already set up! The house is well stocked and has everything anyone would need during a vacation stay…the views from the gazebo are lovely and a great place to relax at any hour of the day. Having Assateague close by was a plus for us since my family loves to hike, bird watch and take photographs. In addition to that the grocery store, restaurants and down town are also close by. This was a perfect vacation for us when we really needed it. I thank Claudia and her family for providing us with such a beautiful home for our Christmas vacation. Don’t think twice about renting this house!! You will absolutely LOVE it! We hope to return soon.

I was impressed with this rental from day 1. Claudia responded to all my questions quickly and set the tone for our stay before I even booked our reservation. The house is a world of opposites but in a great way – comfy yet gorgeous, stately yet homey. We had everything we could have possibly needed and more. The elevator was a huge benefit, especially when making multiple trips to the car to unload upon arriving. Thank you Claudia and Claus – your hospitality was above and beyond!

By far the most beautiful home we have rented for a family vacation. The home is not only well stocked with every imaginable need, it is well thought out with a lot of attention to details ….. like a small folding step stool so the shorter members of our family could enjoy spotting the myriad of wildlife and birds through the telescope! We had a group of friends and family and everyone was more then comfortable in the bedrooms, each with their own bath and …. view! The elevator made it comfortable for the elders so they did not need to navigate the steps. With warmer then usual weather for late October, we were able to enjoy the warm morning sun and sunsets from the covered porch. All and all a magical stay!!

Upon first opening the door to the home, we were fascinated. The online pictures did not do it justice! It is probably the most beautiful place we’ve stayed yet. The amenities provided were excellent and went above and beyond any place else we’ve stayed. The only thing we struggled with a bit was the stairs and the baby but created our own gate. My family truly enjoyed the stay and the grandkids wanted to stay forever! Thank you.

Our family (which included my husband and I and our daughter and her family) thoroughly enjoyed our vacation in Moorings North. Upon our arrival, there was a welcome basket which included yummy treats for our grandkids. This was a very special touch! I also received a beautiful bouquet of flowers in celebration of my birthday (which was the reason for the special vacation)! This was so thoughtful and appreciated! The house was absolutely beautiful! The accommodations were perfect for our family. The location is close to the center of town. The sunsets each night were extraordinary! We rode the cruiser bikes to Assateague Island one day with two of our grandkids. We also rode around town on the cruiser bikes. We enjoyed the fresh fish from Howard’s Seafood! We explored the lighthouse, and spent some time on the beach on Assateague Island. We enjoyed delicious dinners in the gazebo each night! This was definitely an awesome family vacation! We look forward to staying in this beautiful home again in the very near future! Thank you, Claudia and Claus!

The new owners have made this home warm and welcoming. We’ll be back!

A Place to Make Memories

This was our third time renting this home and once again, we had a wonderful time. The house was spacious enough to accommodate our extended family, providing wonderful memories of fishing off the pier, playing games together, watching movies, reading and relaxing. While there is plenty of space for family activities there is also enough space for “alone time”. I felt like we wanted for nothing – it was all there – everything we needed and more! One of the things I like the most are the beautiful sunsets over the bay, easy to see and enjoy from the wall of windows inside or the gazebo outside. Your home is a special place and we appreciated the opportunity to enjoy it again – together!

We had an absolutely wonderful time in Chincoteague, due in no small part to this gorgeous home. We had a range of ages (8 years to 81) and everyone loved it and was very comfortable. Breakfast on the beautiful 3rd story patio, amazing sunsets, and being so close to downtown was perfect. The street was quiet enough that the kids could safely bike for ice cream, and it was very easy for us to walk to town. Riding bikes in the early morning to Assateague to see the wildlife was incredible. The home was absolutely spotless, beautifully decorated, and every detail was thought of. I have already recommended it to my friends, and I will definitely be back to stay here. Thank you for a truly wonderful, memorable stay with my family.

We have stayed in many beach houses over the years and this was by far my favorite. You don’t even have to leave the house to have a good time! We enjoyed the ever-changing views inside and out between watching the boats sail by, the sunsets, and the shore birds. There was always a pleasant breeze on the covered upper deck, conveniently located just off the main living space. I also loved that the house comes with sheets and towels, bikes, beach umbrellas (and an elevator to haul suitcases and groceries). A good time in this house is effortless–just as a vacation should be.

We loved it! One of the best vacations we ever had! Chincoteague Island, Virginia is truly wonderful and staying at Moorings North was an exceptional experience. A gem on the East Coast, destination Moorings North welcomes you with a view of the Bay that is nothing less than captivating. Family Grill truly makes you feel at home during your stay. And if you can manage to part from that view for a moment, if your looking for a bit of adventure, we highly recommend one of our favorite excursions, The Bay Cruise Boat Tour by Captain Barry. Be sure to stop by the the beach and round out the day with a trip to the Island Creamery. We are looking forward to the next time we are in town!

View is spectacular! Owner’s communications were warm, prompt and concise. Endless examples of the owners’ thoughtfulness: ipad provided and already equipped with Pandora(!), warm welcome basket of treats and gift card to revered Island Creamery(!), nicely labeled light switches and tiny unobtrusive wall signs offering helpful hints about various features of the house. Appreciated the gas fireplace, spotting scope, boogey boards, beach chairs, bicycles, binoculars, TWO coffee makers, TWO ovens and TWO HVAC thermostats. The elevator made luggage in and trash out: quick and easy, and left more time for fun! We could not have been the only guests to feel like this home’s design, layout and furnishings were straight out of our dreams. Nor were we the first to fantasize about staying here forever – or at least returning next season!

This was my second stay at this great house. I have traveled here twice with colleagues while working at the local NASA center. First and foremost, the hosts are extremely accommodating, very pleasant, and very easy to communicate with. They are attentive and providing. Second, the house is incredible from the view to the stocked kitchen to the great living space. The bedrooms are comfortable and make you feel at home. The little extras are great too like taking the bikes out to the beach. I can’t say enough about the house and the hosts; truly a wonderful experience.

Outstanding Venue, Outstanding Visit

Rated 5 out of 5

Moorings North is just a beautiful house in a beautiful location. Everything was just perfect with our visit including the cleanliness, and layout of the home. The Owners have really thought of everything in this spectacular place. The kitchen had everything we needed in it, the bedrooms were wonderfully outfitted and the layout of the home allowed all 5 women in our party to both have privacy when we wanted it, and plenty of space to visit all together. The decks allow beautiful views of the sunsets and water, the bikes are so convenient to get some exercise and see the islands as well. The Owners are so kind and attentive, answering all of our questions right away. I can’t say enough about how terrific this place is. I highly recommend this for anyone looking for a wonderful family vacation.

Tranquil, Beautiful, Luxurious and Comfortable

Rated 5 out of 5

This was our third stay a Moorings North and it is consistantly the best place for the money on the Island. Convenient to everything, yet quiet and tranquil, it even has a dock so you can bring your boat and avoid annoying trips to the boat ramp. The owners are kind, flexible (we came a day early and checked out late), and treat you like friends. Moorings North is a twice-yearly tradition for us now.

Beautiful home! Beautiful view!

Rated 5 out of 5

What a wonderful week our family had at Moorings North! We loved everything about this home – the architecture, furnishings, location and spectacular view. The owners take great care to make sure everything is just right, even including a generous gift basket and lovely holiday decorations. We hope to stay at Moorings North again, and wholeheartedly recommend it to other Chincoteague visitors!

Fabulous Weekend in Chincoteague

Rated 5 out of 5

Recently, our families, 3 generations, gather in Chincoteague for a fabulous weekend of food, fun and family time. We were drawn to Chincoteague for the oyster festival, but came away with many happy memories. The house we rented was a spacious home that accommodate our large group. We shared many meals around the dining room table and on the beautiful attached porch. We spent many hours admiring the amazing wildlife and ocean views right outside our doors.

Wow!!! I am not sure what to say about a PERFECT weekend with friends that was made even better by WONDERFUL hosts except that we will try to make an annual visit to this BEAUTIFUL place. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you to the Host Family and to Awesome Friends! We are so lucky we found each other through VRBO. 🙂

Celebrating our friend’s 50th birthday!

Rated 5 out of 5

What an amazing stay we had at your house! Nine of us spent three days there celebrating our friend’s 50th birthday! Everything about the house was pure pleasure- from the gorgeous views (with the huge jellyfish floating by!) to the beautiful interior layout. Everything was in mint condition and the personal touches everywhere were delightful. I learned some interesting facts about downtown Chincoteague from the fantastic informative book laid out on the bedroom side table (Misty’s hoofprints are in concrete in front of the cinema!).

The location of the house was so convenient for everything from taking a stroll downtown to going on a fun-filled, gorgeous bike ride to Assateague beach. (Thanks for all the bikes you have there for your guests!)

We loved sitting out on the back porch that looks out over the water. The beautiful birds, jellyfish, ducks, and stupendous sunsets all displayed there in our laps was heavenly.

I can’t say enough about this spacious, amenity-loaded house!!!! Wonderful, wonderful existence there! We all agreed to make this an annual event at your house!

Great House for a Group

Rated 5 out of 5

I was part of a group of 10 women who stayed in this house for a long weekend as a 50th birthday celebration. We loved the house! Incredible views, cozily furnished and well appointed. The kitchen and other common areas were perfect for our needs. We especially loved hanging out on the 2nd floor deck. The bedrooms and bathrooms are nicely situated to allow for privacy and are comfortable, and the bathrooms are quite spacious and inviting. The owner went out of her way to help our friend celebrate her birthday – the welcome basket and the flowers sent during our stay were lovely and very much appreciated. All in all a wonderful place for a relaxing get-away. Would love to come back and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a beautiful place to stay on Chincoteague Island. The house is walking distance from the main street shopping area which is an additional bonus. And the sunsets were truly fabulous!

Absolutely beautiful house, Amazing hosts

Rated 5 out of 5

I can honestly say this was the best experience I have ever had with a host. Claudia and Claus were incredible. Their attention to detail is amazing, the house was everything they said it would be and more. The best part was the little touches. From the welcome basket, to the little labels they put on everything to help you find things, it was clear that they spent a lot of time working on making people’s stay as enjoyable as possible. If you ever find yourself in Chincoteague you’d be stupid not to consider this house.

Gorgeous home, comfortable stay

Rated 5 out of 5

We had a most relaxing and enjoyable stay at this comfortable and beautiful home. We were a group of 10 and found the right balance between privacy and interaction here. The kitchen is well-equipped; the house has a great design (and even an elevator). The home is tastefully decorated and shows the owners’ attention to detail and care. We will be back!

Best Vacation House on the Island!!

Rated 5 out of 5

I have been vacationing in Chincoteague with my family for the past 31 years staying at mobile homes, cabins, hotels and other rental homes but Moorings North is by far the best place we have stayed at. The house is spacious, beautiful, and well-appointed. The views are breath-taking anytime of the day but especially at sunset. To top it all off, Claus and Claudia were excellent to deal with. All the personal touches from their emails to the welcome and thank you cards to the gift basket and to many more small gestures all added up to a wonderful and relaxing stay at the Best Vacation House on the Island: Moorings North! We all loved it and am hoping to be able to book another stay next year but the reservations go fast.

Ideal for Nature Lovers

Rated 5 out of 5

The house is beautiful, well appointed and ideally located. The wall of windows in the great room faces the bay which is a combination of open water and marshes. One morning we saw a pod of ~20 dolphins swim right past the house (within 50-100 ft). Another day we saw two bald eagles. There was almost always a variety of herons and egrets in sight. On clear nights the sunsets were spectacular. We enjoyed the house as much as we enjoyed the beach.

Claudia and Claus are also attentive hosts. My wife has problems with allergies and Claudia arranged for the linens to be washed in an unscented detergent before we arrived.

Wonderful Home for Large Family Vacation

Rated 5 out of 5

Our family of 6 adults and 4 children, 3 generations, loved our stay at Moorings North. Very convenient for activities at Assateague. Some days were spent at the beach. Participated in a number of activities organized through the NPS especially for children including a 2 hour bus trip into the northern area of Assateague where the ponies run free.

The house provided plenty of room to spread out. Most of our meals were at the outdoor gazebo where everyone enjoyed watching the boats passing by, the birds across the way and of course the jellyfish below. The 8 and 10 year old loved their private space in the tower.

Having bikes available was great for rides with the kids. Having all the linens provided made things so much easier. Claudia was very helpful before we went in in answering questions we had.

The Perfect Family Vacation

Rated 5 out of 5

Our family has been vacationing in Chincoteague every summer for the past few summers, but it was only this year at Moorings North that we finally found “our” spot. We fell in love with the house from the moment we walked in. Our daughter (10) was more than excited to check out every level, every nook and cranny, and especially excited about the elevator. The views from the family room took our breaths away. My husband’s passion is fishing, and this house was in the perfect location. He tied his John boat up out behind the house and went out every morning and most evenings. We could have lived off the flounder he caught! This will sound silly but one thing I loved was for once being the adults that “hosted” the vacation – that meant we got one of the master suits. I only wish I’d had time to soak in the tub. The bathroom was beautiful – spacious and tiled. Our friends who came with us were just as awed with the place as we were. We spent evenings grilling on the deck, watching the sunset over the water. We took bike rides through town or to the grocery store, and we put together a 750-piece puzzle of the NY skyline with a view of the water before us! It was great being close to Main Street but far enough away from the noise. With the beach only a short ride away…we were in heaven. What made this experience even better was the owner. Claudia was so helpful and pleasant, responsive and kind. We emailed her to let her know one of the stove top burners wasn’t getting fully hot, and her response was fast and gracious. We’ve already reserved our week here next year!

Chincoteague’s Best Family Vacation House

Rated 5 out of 5

Our family had a marvelous time at Moorings North. We have been to Chincoteague several times before but this was our first time in Claudia and Claus’s lovely home. It was so beautiful! Everything you need is provided for — They have really thought of everything. The home was clean and cool when we arrived. The gourmet kitchen was very comfortable for preparing family meals with plentiful supply of dishes, glasses, silverware and cookware. We used the gas grill on the big outdoor deck for several dinners and really enjoyed the balconies all around. Nice linens were provided for all the beds and bathrooms. Lots of extras like board games, an Ipad, boogie boards for the beach, etc, etc. Our favorite was the bikes. They are really nice cruisers and we used them alot. They even had tools hanging right with the bikes so you can adjust if the seat is too high, etc. The house is only a short walk or ride straight down main street to all the cute little shops in the center of town so we went to the coffee shop, the ice cream shops and browsed all the little art shops — great fun. The views are so beautiful from every window, especially from the living room — simply breathtaking! Everyone took so many pictures that we will need a while to compile them all! The house is really perfect for all ages too. Our group was 1 toddler, 1 teenager, 2 young parents, 3 in our 40-50’s and 3 Seniors 65+ and everyone had just what they wanted. The elevator is great — very convenient but safely set up so no risk for our little one. My teen daughter loved her “tree house” (the loft bedroom with the spiral staircase). All the other bedrooms are suites with beautiful attached bathrooms and comfortable beds. This lovely home was the perfect retreat with privacy for everyone and space to enjoy being together after each day of fun. We went sightseeing, boating, to NASA, to the beach, on a photo cruise to see the ponies, fishing, etc. and loved having this delightful home to rest in after each days adventures. Really I can go on and on but you just need to go and enjoy this amazing home for yourself. You will not be sorry! We can’t wait to go back. Thank you Claus and Claudia for being such welcoming and attentive hosts and sharing your lovely home on Chincoteague Island.

Gorgeous home in spectacular location!

Rated 5 out of 5

Moorings North is a gorgeous home worthy of any of America’s prestigious beach towns. The gourmet kitchen opens onto an expansive family room with 180-degree views of the water. We loved the canal we were on, as we were able to watch the animals and be endlessly entertained by the insanely swift currents that passed by. All the bedrooms were beautifully maintained and furnished. The four main bedrooms all have bathrooms attached. The tower bedroom that sleeps three is really best for kids – it was loud when people were in the living space, and you had to go down a floor to use the bathroom. But it was absolutely adorable. All the rooms have lovely water views – exactly what you want out of a vacation home! The amenities were fantastic: well stocked kitchen cabinets, awesome beach cruiser bikes, towels and linens for each person, games, dvds, great bar, two grills, a crab trap, beach chairs & umbrella… I really could go on!!! Also, my mother-in-law has MS and trouble navigating stairs. The elevator was such a blessing!!! Claudia & Claus (owners) were superb to work with. Great and prompt communication, and they even provided a list of recommended activities on the island. When we had trouble locking one of the doors, a text message resulted in a quick reply clarifying how to do it. Visit Moorings North! You won’t regret it. Just don’t book the whole summer – we are dying to return!!!

Best House on the Island!

Rated 5 out of 5

Without question, this is by far one of the most amazing vacation homes I’ve ever stayed in. Our group was nine people, ages ranging from 30 to 40 years old, couples and singles. We came from D.C., enjoy outdoor activities, the beach, relaxing, fishing, and having a great time. This was simply the perfect house to get away from the D.C. chaos. The house is superbly clean, new facilities, modern appliances, and a spectacular view of the sunset from the living room. The house came with four bicycles and since we also brought our own bikes, there was enough for the entire group to bike to the beach and ride trails each day. There are shops on the island to rent bikes, scooters, carts, kayaks, boats, jet ski’s, etc. The kitchen came stocked with plenty of cooking utensils, dinnerware, condiments, and grilling utensils. There are two grills, propane and charcoal. I could go on and on about the house, but believe me, it’s a high-end luxury rental property. To add to the weekend treat, the neighbors are outstanding and very friendly. We would wonder next door to talk, share wine, fish, and even boat on the water for the sunset! The island is exactly what we expected. During the day there are a lot of cars and “tourists,” but mid-day they leave and the island becomes quiet and surreal. The beach was almost empty, so we had our own space to relax and lay out. We did not eat at any of the restaurants because we brought plenty of food to cook in the house. We brought all of our food from Whole Foods and D.C., because the only grocery store near the island is Food Lion and their selection is limited. We did purchase ice cream from a home-made creamery on the island, which was fantastic. Whether you have kids or are of any age, I can assure you this is the house you want. I’ve stayed in vacation homes before, all over the world, and can honestly say this house and island was superb. Hopefully it remains quaint and charming for the next 10 years!!!!

This was one of the best vacations we have had. The owners are such awesome people and cared for our every need. The home is amazing and fit our family so well. The views are simply incredible and the home is immaculate in every way. We thank you for your hospitality and look forward to staying at Moorings North again!

Incredible Property!

Rated 5 out of 5

Our extended family of four adults and four children (ages 3-9) has the distinct pleasure of renting this beautiful home in late March 2014. We have rented dozens of homes all over the world, and have never found a more loving and compassionate set of owners. Claudia was remarkable at working with us, ensuring our stay was outstanding, and equipping the home with any and all of the necessary details (including great bicycles!). The home is in an excellent location and is close to everything. The sunsets are beautiful, and we particularly enjoyed our walks and bike rides on Assateague Island. The home itself is remarkable, with its many and varied bedrooms and bathrooms! Exploring the home is half the fun! We found the home to be perfect for our group. The kids said “it’s not a home, it’s a MANSION!” They obviously loved it (including the elevator!). Our many thanks to Claudia for sharing this marvelous property!

Amazing & fantastic; hope to be back!

Rated 5 out of 5

What a great vacation home! The owners are incredibly thoughtful, responsive, and kind. Our Moorings North weekend consisted of four families getting together to enjoy Chincoteague and a chance to relax with friends. We could not have found a better location. The home was clean and well taken care of, but saying just that undersells this place. Not only is the home spacious and beautiful with spectacular views, it is also comfortable with so many luxuries included.

I hope that it it will be available for the next time we head out to Chincoteauge!

A note for parents with wee ones: There are no child gates at the stairs (that is not a complaint!). As long as the parents are attentive, this place can work for families with young kids–it worked for us and all of the parents were still able to relax and enjoy being there with 4 kids ranging from 6 months to 3 years.

A Little Slice of Paradise

Rated 5 out of 5

Our experience at Moorings North was wonderful, from our first contact with our hosts to the easy checkout. The property is beautiful, looking across a narrow channel to marshland and Chincoteague Bay. We enjoyed the local wildfowl from the big bay window and the gazebo-in-the-sky—buffleheads, herons, shorebirds, even a bald eagle and a loon. Bring your binoculars! The house is beautifully appointed and the owners have thought of everything you’ll need—from the well-appointed kitchen to the pad of paper for your grocery list. You won’t find another property so well-appointed and well-situated in Chincoteague. It’s a short walk to town or down Maddox Blvd for ice cream and shopping. The property fit our three families, each with one 15-year-old boy, very comfortably. There was plenty for all of us to do—fishing, bird-watching, beachcombing, nature walks, skateboarding. But, you might just never want to leave the comfort of your beautiful home-away-from-home on Chincoteague Island! Thank you, Claudia and Claus for sharing your little slice of paradise.

A complete pleasure

Rated 5 out of 5

Staying at Moorings North was an excellent experience from start to finish. The owners were very kind, efficient and considerate when booking, which is not always the case for other vrbo’s, and I’ve stayed at several. The house was incredible and the location ideal. We had 7 colleagues staying together as we attended WFF for meetings. The house served not only as a comfortable place to relax, but an excellent venue for our various meetings and discussions during the course of our stay. Additionally, when we finished work we enjoyed riding bikes, enjoying the view, and even a little stargazing through the telescope! I cannot imagine a more perfect place to stay during our trip. I’ve already decided to book here whenever possible. I’m even considering vacationing here with my family since the house/location is so wonderful. I wouldn’t stay anywhere else in the chincoteague area if I can help it. Thank you very much for the perfect stay!!!

We have been to Moorings North twice and will return again. The house is just perfect. Lots of space, great amenities, well stocked kitchen, privacy, beautiful view, clean and well maintained. We’ve rented several vacation homes over the years and this is our favorite place – by far. Claudia and Claus are great hosts!

Discovered The Island’s Special Character Even In Winter Time

Rated 5 out of 5

It was the first time for me on Chincoteague Island and now I can easily understand why people fall in love with this „little spot of earth“. The Moorings North was the perfect place for me to discover and enjoy the island‘s special character… even in winter time! I was lucky to see the island‘s charming sunlight glittering over the icy water and the snow covered landscape!

The freezing temperatures outside were perfectly contrasted by the warm, bright and welcoming atmosphere in this beautiful house! From the first moment on I felt kind of familiar with the house, although there is plenty to discover! I definitely liked the general character offering a gentle breeze of extravagance finding its perfect combination with convenience. The house offers places to come together but it also shelters you in intimate rooms and comforts you with places to take your retreat time with a book…. and never forget the view! Wherever I was – I discovered a new spectacular outlook!

The kitchen – one of my favorite places of that house! Fully equipped with everything you need to cook (and to serve!) a delicious dish, became the core place of my vacation time! There is so much pleasure in dining at the large wooden table with this stunning view!

Coming from Europe I specially liked the location of the house in walking distance to downtown historic Chincoteague with its little shops & stores, coffee places, grocery store, churches, movie theater and much more!

One day I walked down the street in the other direction to the nearby island‘s nature trail… and on the next day I took one of the brand-new bikes and went on a 15 minute ride to the sea shore! The ride takes longer if you stop at the creamery what might happen – not only to me…

I hope I‘ll have the chance to come back to Moorings North!

Amazing Property with Amazing Hosts

Rated 5 out of 5

We were the first to rent from Claus and Claudia after they bought the property, can’t say enough good things about them, the property and the experience. From the Welcome Basket we found upon our arrival, to the crisp and friendly check-in during our stay, and the post-departure email thanking us for being there, this was a 5 star experience in every way. The house is warm and welcoming, impeccably and smartly furnished, with exceptional views and a quiet neighborhood that’s walking distance to the center of town. You’re literally steps from the water with a deepwater dock that doesn’t ground your boat at high tide, and has access to some of the best fishing on the Atlantic coast. 15 minutes to the ocean as well as the bay, this property is one of the best locations on the island. You can easily sleep, feed and entertain 10 people in sumptuous comfort. Large eat in kitchen, HDTV, and a wonderful deck with pristine views that can easily accommodate everyone for dinner round out the amenities. Lots of parking, TV’s in every room, three master bedroom suites with top of the line fixtures make this the premier property on the island. As for the owners, they made us feel like we were staying at friend’s house. Claus and Claudia seem to know just what you need and when. We had such a great experience that we waited to write the review until we’d booked our stay for 2014. Highly recommended, we’ll be back as often as time permits.
